Time for another post in my old theaters of Saginaw series, I figure this time I can post something a little more recent that I remember, the old Cinema and Suds on the corner of Schust and Fashion Square Blvd.  I could not find out exactly when it opened and closed, but it was around in the early 90’s, I remember watching Backdraft (1991) and Cool Runnings (1993) at the old theater/restaurant.  It was not open very long, but I like going there although my wife and I were young at the time, and it was somewhere to go and watch second run movies for cheap and then we usually got some thing inexpensive to eat. I guess that’s whey they went out of business and its a medical office now. I think it would have been done better if it was more of a restaurant with good food that happened to show movies, instead of a movie place that sold mediocre food.  If I had the money I would make something like the Sci Fi Dine In and showed classic movies, but I guess I am only dreaming again.

Now that I am getting older I know how my Grandparents felt remembering places that are gone. If only my flux capacitor would get here from amazon.

It would mean a lot to me if you Subscribe to Pure Saginaw,
